Article Synopsis
- Vocalizations in nonhuman primates are crucial for daily interactions and might have influenced the development of human language.
- Research on the common marmoset has identified the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) area 32 as part of the network for processing vocalizations, but its specific responses to sounds were previously unclear.
- Electrophysiological recordings show that about 50% of neurons in area 32 react to conspecific vocalizations and complex sounds, showing a unique pattern of initially decreased and then increased neural activity, indicating sound selectivity.
